Thanks for the tip!Not correct, <data> must be base64 not hex (text editor).
Of course now that I try to reproduce both monitors working today, I get totally different results. I even documented all the different combinations I tried. I will keep working and let you know if I get something working. Well I was able to save a IOReg of HDMI and DP but not when both were working at the same time. I was unable to get a hot plug working today. Every time I plugged the other monitor in my whole system restarted.
I have also attached my config.plist.
Thanks!
Update: I think I may have found the problem for those of you that can't enable a second monitor using HD530.
Since the recent release of 10.11.5, when I updated I lost the ability to hot plug my second monitor at the desktop. The only difference on my system is, before I was using the Nvidia GTX970 and to use this with an iMac17,1 system definition I had to disable Apple's Graphics Device policy. This was disabled when testing HD530/dual monitor in 10.11.4 and was unaware it affected HD530.
Using HD530 with an iMac17,1 limits you to one boot display and no second monitor unless you remove Apple Graphics Device policy. HD530 is restricted too as is the Nvidia cards with this system definition. Now I've disabled Apples graphics display policy in 10.11.5 hot plugging my second monitor is working.

If anyone wants to test/confirm my theory go ahead and apply the fix in Problem 4/Method 2 here : Solving NVIDIA Driver Install & Loading Problems Restart required.
Alternatively use shilohh's app at the bottom of Post#1 here: Black Screen with MacPro 6,1 or iMac 15 or iMac 17 System Definition Restart required.

Do I need other patches in the config.plist, or just this Apple Graphics Device policy patch ?
